CHARGES FILED AGAINST DRUG SUSPECT: The U.S. attorney’s office has filed federal drug charges against a 51-year-old Richmond man arrested in April with more than a kilogram of cocaine, police say.

A case developed by police Detective Aaron Pomeroy through the federal Safe Streets Task Force led authorities to arrest Clifford Harris in the 5200 block of Creely Avenue on April 26.

Police and federal agents found about 1 kilogram of powder cocaine, 3 ounces of crack cocaine and a similar quantity of heroin in the house, along with a handgun and $500 in cash, police said.

Harris appeared before a federal magistrate this week, Pomeroy said.

CHARGES FILED AFTER POLICE-SHOOTING CASE: A man accused of threatening a police officer with a handgun during a foot chase last week faces two felony charges in Contra Costa Superior Court.

The district attorney’s office filed charges of possessing an unregistered firearm and exhibiting a firearm in the presence of a police officer against 19-year-old William Henderson III in connection with his May 28 arrest, during which a Richmond police officer fired a round at him on South 26th Street.

The round hit a parked car in which at least two women sat, but no one was wounded. The police department and the Richmond Police Commission are investigating the shooting.

Police said at the time that the officer saw Henderson pulling a handgun from his waistband, prompting the gunfire. Officers found a handgun near the scene of the shooting, which they say Henderson threw down as he ran.
